Suzanne Anderson: “You Make Your Path By Walking” Ep. 60

Post-Traumatic Thriving

In the days following her husband’s suicide, Suzanne felt like the ground beneath her had disappeared.

At first, Suzanne slipped into a denial stage. Realizing that would not help her, she began to reach out for help. Suzanne began to work with developmental trauma and wrote, “You Make Your Path By Walking.” It took her four years to be able to revisit her trauma. Suzanne explains the importance of community. At this stage, she realized she was faced with another decision. Would she try to get back to where she was? Or be reborn?
